Jason Soon hoaxcatcher

Jason Soon, on Catallaxy, was the first blogger to discover the identity of trickster Sharon What’s-her-name.

On the same site, and on Andrew Norton’s, blogger “jc” has offered a reward of $3000 to the first person to hoax The Age, Sydney Morning Herald or Financial Review with an op-ed “on AGW or any subject the left holds dear. It has to be a hoax and the person outs themselves after it is published.”

The MSM should be thankful that jc’s reward can’t be backdated. If it could I have a feeling that any article by Katherine Wilson (or Margaret Simons? or David Marr?) would have a chance of winning.
